The concept: Pick a LEGO flag and build a castle kingdom for it.The twist: Castle flags will score lower than flags from other LEGO categories. Yep, I said that. So feel free to build a kingdom of the Black Falcon, but know that it won’t score as high as say the Kingdom of Lightning McQueen (Please note…I have no idea if there is in fact a Lightning McQueen flag…I was just picking some LEGO set that I know wasn’t castle.)

The rules:1) Pick an existing LEGO flag.2) Build a kingdom for that flag. Oh and it should go without saying that the flag should be in the build.3) Size restrictions: It has to fit on a 48x48 baseplate. If you don’t build on the baseplate, please take a picture with your build on the baseplate so we can see that it fits the dimensions. Please do not ask if your build can have the same number of studs in area but different size than a 48x48. The answer will be no.4) No custom parts or stickers please.5) You can build one entry so make it good.6) Please make sure you follow the TOS for your builds. Staff reserves the right to remove builds that violate it. 7) Anyone can compete…including me since I am not the judge this time. 8. Pictures do whatever makes you happy but please remember forum rules for posting.

The prize:Set 6103 but it has no box and no instructions. Essentially, it is six very cool figs with accessories.

1. Are we talking any livery? Or just one that actually appears on a flag? I.e. if a faction appears on a shield, but LEGO never made a flag with that same faction, is that excluded?e.g. shield and flag: shield only:

2. Are we just talking about the 2x2 square flags with clips?Or are we talking any type of flag element (2x2, 4x6, odd-shapes, long banners, ones made of abs, ones made of vinyl, ones made of cloth, etc)?

Yep that would be excluded because it has to be on a flag.

You can build micro or minifig scale. It is whatever you prefer. Yes, it can be smaller than 48x48. But please make sure to take a picture of it on a 48x48 if possible so the judge can see that it is within the size restriction.
